For natural beauty, solitude, and just plain fun, you can't beat the classic family camping trip. From the Florida Keys to the beaches of Cambodia, here are your favorite great-outdoors getaways!

"Mount Desert Island in Maine in August. Free-range blueberries for the morning pancakes and tons of hiking trails and swimming holes. Plus, you don't have to feel guilty about the occasional lobster feast at night because, hey, you are camping." —Laura Sommer

"That's easy: Eastern Washington and, specifically, Sun Lakes State Park, Yakima River Canyon, Jones Bay Group Camp or Alta Lake. Splendid camping in Eastern Washington—our family camps all over out that way, and we have some good stories to tell!" —@clevelandette

"Ruckle Park on Salt Spring Island in British Columbia, Canada. Renting at the water's edge overlooking the gulf islands, coastal mountains, and watching the bald eagles and boats cruise by is paradise!" —Andrea Duncan

"Grayson Highlands State Park and Mt. Rogers National Recreation Area in Virginia—easy hikes in and out, permanent lean-tos or tent camping, part of the Appalachian Trail, and great wildlife including the feral ponies." —Chad Feay

"Ginnie Springs [in northern Florida]. Headed there right now. Ready for camping, tubing down the beautiful Santa Fe River, relaxing in the refreshingly cold springs and having an all around great time with friends." —Eve Rigdon Stairs

"The Pennsylvania state parks are our favorites—hiking trails, lake or riverfront for boating and swimming, and clean bathhouses. For day users, no fees for using the trails, picnic grounds, or beaches!" —Mary Bigelow
